In today's competitive landscape, selecting the most qualified candidates has emerged as a central challenge for organizations worldwide. To meet this challenge, organizations are increasingly relying on online methods for human resources activities, with online recruitment being a pivotal aspect. E-Recruitment, the process of hiring personnel through digital channels, particularly leveraging the internet, has gained prominence. This research delves into the influence of e-recruitment practices on the operational efficiency of governmental bodies. Data for this study were collected from 140 employees of the Independent Directorate of Local Governance (IDLG) and subjected to analysis using the SPSS software.
Given the IDLG's status as a significant government entity in Afghanistan, utilizing diverse e-recruitment methods, the insights provided by its employees were instrumental in addressing the research inquiries. The study's results indicate that E-Recruitment enhances organizational performance by facilitating the selection of highly qualified personnel. The majority of respondents supported this assertion, with only a minority expressing disagreement. Similarly, a significant number of respondents agreed that E-Recruitment aids in enhancing organizational performance by reducing costs and time associated with the recruitment process, while a smaller number disagreed with this notion.
Furthermore, the study's findings assist organizations in conducting a thorough analysis of various e-recruitment methods and technologies, enabling them to make informed choices. Simultaneously, the study aims to address the root causes of dissatisfaction among job seekers arising from inadequately structured online recruitment processes.
Additionally, the study presents several pertinent recommendations in its conclusion, aimed at guiding future practices in this domain.
